SMARTLOCK SECURITY IN THE HIGHLANDS
» » DUNALASTAIR HOTE, IN THE HEART
of Kinloch Rannoch, was first converted
into a hotel at the turn of the last century
and originally constructed as a Highland
Sporting Lodge. In 2014 the hotel started
its multi-million pound refurbishment;
creating 32 luxury suites along with an
onsite café and refreshment area.
An important aspect of the
refurbishment plans was to incorporate
the very latest access control technology
into the new venue, allowing staff
complete flexibility in the management
of guest checking in and out, monitoring
movement around the premises, plus the
ability to provide real-time cancellation
and logging in facilities.
Securefast’s state of the art OnDoor
Smartlock Wireless Network system
provided the perfect solution,
incorporating a dedicated server in
the hotel reception area with a direct
computer link to the Windows based
software ASL957 Management system.
This user friendly system allows the staff
easily to programme
the MiFare cards for
the staff and guests with
access to doors, groups and
areas with time and date validity and shift
control using the wireless dongle.
Each of the 32 bedrooms was fitted
with the ASL951BW wireless locks in a
brushed stainless steel finish which give
a single operation on the inside for easy
egress and card control from the corridor
side with a key override facility should it
be needed in an emergency or if battery
power is low. Each individual lock is
wirelessly connected to five ASL95BASE
